About me
Professor Jain is an internationally recognised expert in the management of prostate cancer. He treats patients with prostate cancer with advanced radiotherapy (stereotactic radiotherapy) and drug therapy (chemotherapy, hormone therapy). He carried an international fellowship at University of Toronto in prostate cancer.
He is an innovator working to reduce side-effects and improve outcomes from prostate cancer treatment; he performed the first transperineal prostate biopsies, the first transperineal fiducial marker insertion and the first SpaceOAR insertion in Northern Ireland. He also introduced new services to NI, HDR brachytherapy for prostate cancer and stereotactic radiotherapy for prostate cancer and oligometastatic disease. He leads multiple drug and radiotherapy trials in Northern Ireland and is a member of trial management groups for national and international studies.
He is an invited member of the American Society of Clinical Oncology Genitourinary Guidelines Development Group, the UK National Cancer Research Institute's prostate cancer clinical research group and the NI NICAN radiotherapy clinical reference group. He is past-Chair of the Irish Radiation Research Society. He is Co-Director of the FASTMAN UK Prostate Cancer of Excellence. He has published papers in the most important journals including New England Journal of Medicine, Lancet Oncology and Journal of Clinical Oncology. He strongly believes in educating the next generation of doctors towards a career in academic oncology.
